I’ve made some by taking 1” x 6” oak, using a hole saw to drill 2-1/2” holes, spaced uniformly down the length of the board (centered, as well), then ripping the length of the board to give 2 “rails” that can be affixed to the wall.

No, but I need a vertical rack that lets me lean guns along a wall without the risk of sliding and falling like dominos. Will be revisiting this thread to see what kind of input you get! Locked in the safe mostly, but this is just somewhere to stick them during hunting season so the dogs don't knock em over or something.

I made one in 9th grade “shop” class and the sides and drawer parts were from birdseye maple. I still have some of my less expensive guns on it versus in a safe.

Magnetic tool hanger screwed to one side of a 2x2. Then a row of screw-U's on the other side. Stick to side of safe, tool cabinet, file cabinet, etc. Bruce

I'm in the middle of making some for the toy room. Anyone else? Yes - several types/sizes over the years. Just something a guy has to have - pretty quick.
